This guide will teach you the steps to configure Dynamic Lighting to match the Windows 11 accent color on your RGB accessories on Windows 11.

Change Dynamic Lighting to match accent color for RGB peripherals

To configure Dynamic Lighting to match the Windows 11 accent color, use these steps:

1. Open Settings on Windows 11.

   Quick note: Since this is a feature that’s still in development, you will need a device with the Windows 11 build 23516 or higher releases in the Dev Channel.

2. Click on Personalization.

3. Click the Dynamic Lighting tab.

4. Click the Effects setting.

5. Choose the Solid Color option from the “Effects” setting.

6. Turn on the “Match my Windows accent color” toggle switch.

Once you complete the steps, the RGB lighting on your accessories (keyboard, mouse, speakers, monitor, etc.) will change automatically according to the system accent color.

You can also open Settings> Personalization> Colors, and under the “Accent color” setting, choose the “Automatic” option to change the color based on the primary colors of the desktop wallpaper. Furthermore, on Settings> Personalization> Background, you can choose the “Windows Spotlight” option to rotate different background images throughout the day, which will also result in dynamically changing the lighting colors in your peripherals.
